Hey! There is a HP48S "RULES", sort of - Joe Panico - 03-24-2000 Fellow Museum-ites, A previous post was looking for the names of the HP48 designers. One idea was to try the RULES command. This will produce the names on G series calculators. What about the S series? Well, much to my surprise, there is a RULES command on the S. But before you get your hopes up, S owners, the command executes the following: :: DoBadKey ; If you don't understand System RPL, here's a beginners program to get you started! Joe. Ok, Ok. It produces the bad key beep your accustom to hearing.
Re: Hey!
